Mutual Funds

Mutual Funds1

Mutual Fund Investment Minimums: Initial investment $2,500 or fund minimum if higher. Subsequent investments $1,000. Trades below the minimum will be charged a transaction fee. Please note: If you purchased a fund and paid a transaction fee, a transaction fee will be charged upon its sale even if it becomes a no-transaction-fee fund after your purchase. If you hold no-transaction-fee fund positions along with transaction-fee positions, the no-transaction-fee positions will liquidate first.
